I've been fascinated with the idea of literally holding your ice cream without the dripping and messy episodes. Though I tried to eat a pandesal stuffed with ice cream before, I just can't.
It just don't match. To me, pandesals are for eggs and butter and cream cheeses.
Early 2012 - this cute word was all over media - MOCHI!
Before we stuff our stomach with these goodies, let's fill in our brain first.
Mochi is a Japanese rice cake made of glutinous rice (sticky rice)
pounded into paste and molded into the desired shape.
In Japan, it is traditionally made in a ceremony called mochitsuki.
Small balls of ice cream are wrapped inside a mochi
covering to make mochi ice cream. - Hence, we got Mochi Ice Cream

I've never been to Japan, but I've seen Mochi's equivalent in Seoul, Korea.
They have a little flat mochi-like biscuit stuffed with oh!-so-good mousse,
it's actually one of my TOP 5 REASONS TO LOVE SEOUL, KOREA (click HERE)
Going back, that
watched the Twilight Breaking Dawn 2 -

Then, the craving starts to kick in!
I know I've seen one Mochi stall in SM Mall of Asia,
but I don't recall exactly where!
We've seen one mochi stall with the green and fuchsia banner,
but I'm freaking sure this is not the one I'm craving.
Thanks to Maya's amazing instinct - we found it!
At last!
CMK HAPPY THOUGHTS:
☺Rumor has it. Y-u-m-m-y! One bite and you'll know
that you'll need to get one and another one and another one...
☺Premium ingredients. I'm not a cook but I love to eat.
And I can say the chocolate mousse within the mochi is of good quality.
☺One-of-a-kind. You pick your flavor - allow it to thaw for a few minutes,
only then can you sink in your teeth with these goodies.
☺Diverse flavors. Peach Cream. Red Bean. Green Tea. From the classic ones
to never heard of flavors. All in.
CMK WISHFUL THOUGHTS:
☻Diet un-friendly. Teehee! You know what I mean.
You have to have will power to stop. Lots of it baby!
☻Price. Each mochi costs Php 70. If you want to have
5 different flavors, that would be Php 350.
Japanese Luxury Sweets - now I get it!
This is something to look forward to this coming weekend!
